The Edmonton Oilers have made some significant additions to their roster this off-season, and now they reportedly aren't done chasing young names.
Despite already adding Jeff Skinner and Victor Arvidsson this summer, the Edmonton Oilers in their pursuit of a Stanley Cup are looking for more, and it may lead to a trade with the Nashville Predators. According to a report from The Mug, the Oilers are eyeing both Philip Tomasino and Dante Fabbro after the losses of Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg, as both could be cheap replacements, potentially acquired with the picks the Edmonton got in return for the offer sheets.
There are some rumblings that the Edmonton Oilers & Nashville Predators have been discussing a trade surrounding D Dante Fabbro.
Am working on confirming the reports.
Later comments would officially confirm the interest from Edmonton in not just one but both of the talented young names.
Can confirm there is smoke behind this. have reached out to representatives from the NHL Network to confirm THEIR Sources.
Oilers connected to Fabbro AND Philip Tomasino here.
Neither have extensive experience at the NHL level, but would be fantastic young replacements for the players that Edmonton just lost, and if they can afford to add both, it would give the NHL's oldest roster a much needed shot of youth as they chase their first Stanley Cup since 1990.
